More than words

"Ini titip buat yang kecil-kecil. Aku inget kemaren Kak Pioq bilang cucunya suka sekali jelly. Tapi gimana mau nyari cepet-cepet orang baru bilang malem besoknya berangkat. Bawa juga ini kripik singkong yang udah dibungkus. Mamiq suka sekali. Pas kita ke Bedugul kemaren nyemil itu terus." Petuah bibi pas mau balik ke Lombok.

Ritual khususnya, sore hari sebelum balik kita pergi ke Jl. Tukad Badung buat beli oleh-oleh. Lalu dibungkus en diingetin yang ini buat siapa yang ono buat si itu.

Pas mau balik ke Denpasar gitu juga. Ibuq en bibi-bibi bakal nanya, "Bik Dijah pesen apa?"

Kalo pesen kopi bakal disiangin, kalo pesen terasi dicariin yang paling enak. Lalu malem sebelum berangkat biasanya dua orang bibi bakal datang bawa tas belanjaan. Isinya full kayak orang baru pulang dari pasar. Ada tomat, kacang tanah, bawang putih, bawang merah, kadang ada juga tahu sama kangkung.

Padahal, Bik Dijah bisa beli semua itu di Pasar Sanglah. Tapi alasan para bibi adalah "Pengen nitip buat sodara tanda saling ingat. Biar dia juga seneng ada yang dibuka sampe sana. Terus bisa dibagiin sama tetangga."

Yak pemirsah, karena cinta tak melulu satu bentuk. Para bibi mungkin tak pernah mendengar hadist itu: Salinglah memberi hadiah, karena itu bisa menyuburkan rasa cinta. Tetapi mereka selalu mengamalkannya.

"More Than Words"

Saying I love you,
Is not the words,
I want to hear from you,
It's not that I want you,
Not to say but if you only knew,
How easy, 
it would be to show me how you feel,

More than words,
is all you have to do, 
to make it real,
Then you wouldn't have to say, 
that you love me,
Cause I'd already know,

What would you do, 
if my heart was torn in two,

More than words to show you feel,
That your love for me is real,

What would you say, 
if I took those words away,

Then you couldn't make things new,
Just by saying I love you,

It's more than words,
It's more than what you say,
It's the things you do,
oh yeah,
It's more than words, 
It's more than what you say,
It's the things you do,
oh yeah,

Now that I've tried to,
talk to you and make you understand,
All you have to do, 
is close your eyes,
And just reach out your hands, 
and touch me,
Hold me close don't ever let me go,

More than words, 
is all I ever needed you to show,
Then you wouldn't have to say, 
that you love me,
Cause I'd already know,

What would you do,
if my heart was torn in two,

More than words to show you feel,
That your love for me is real,
What would you say, 
if I took those words away,
Then you couldn't make things new,(no no)
Just by saying I love you
